How much beta time do we need? I'm not the one to make this kind of  
decision, but having an RC2 of Plone 2.5 if we're pretty confident the  
changes are minor, coninciding with a beta 2 of CMF 1.6.1, if it delays  
things for a week or two seems a reasonable compromise to me, if this  
feature is indeed useful to Plone 2.5-based developers, and just in order  
to keep us in synch.

As I said, whether that's an option for Plone is up to Alec, not me,  
though. :)
